6 CRT

Obtained from a local picker...
Nice image of a returned soldier, 6 Canadian Railway Troops. Some interesting details...

Do you think this is post-war? There is something on his left breast pocket flap...a lapel pin perhaps?

Nice collars too!

Hello Bob, It may well be his "coming home" portrait. The photographer is Whyte / North Bay, and as the unit went overseas as the 228th, being changed to a CRT unit while enroute (IIRC), it would only be possible to have a 6 CRT badge upon his return.
